 Hastings, NE, January 30, 2019 – Scooter’s Coffee, the Midwest-based coffee franchise that has experienced tremendous growth over the past year, added its first location in Hastings, Nebraska, with the company’s latest opening at 423 South Burlington Avenue. To celebrate, the location will be hosting a Grand Opening on Friday, February 8, with giveaways throughout the day.

“Being a part of the Hastings community was a natural fit for Scooter’s Coffee,” stated Mike Rogers, Chief Operating Officer of Scooter’s Coffee. “We were very excited to add another location in our home state, and it has been a pleasure to serve the residents of Hastings.”

On Grand Opening Day, customers can expect to receive several fun giveaways:

  • 10 a.m. – First 100 customers will receive a free $5 gift card with purchase
  • 1 p.m. – First 50 customers will receive a free Scooter’s Coffee tumbler with purchase
  • 4 p.m. – First 50 customers will receive a free Scooter’s Coffee t-shirt with purchase


Franchisees Irene Burklund and Kathy Lemmer own this location. “We were very excited to join a part of the downtown area that has undergone revitalization, and we have already felt the excitement of our customers,” said Burklund. “We have had a great opening and are thrilled to be a part of the heart of Hastings!”

Scooter’s Coffee serves coffee, smoothies, tea, blenders, iced drinks, pastries and more. In addition, the brand offers a mobile app. The app allows customers to quickly pay for purchases by scanning a barcode linked to a registered Scooter’s Coffee gift card.

The app also includes a loyalty program and other features. Acting as a digital punch card, customers earn smiley faces when they use the app for purchases, then can redeem their smiley faces for a free drink after collecting 12. In addition, the app will enable customers to access special offers, view the nearest locations, browse the full Scooter’s Coffee menu and track purchases.

In line with their successful and robust grand opening strategy, Scooter’s Coffee recently opened five locations throughout Kansas and Missouri, opened the second of many locations in Arkansas and is opening additional locations in markets such as Phoenix, Arizona; Rapid City, South Dakota; Dallas, Texas; and Las Vegas, Nevada.
